EMP nade? Kinda boring. Plus you’re gonna need more specific health and speed stats than that.

The gender is simply for the voice.

Fragger has grenades. EMP is a bit cooler than frag.

Phantom already has the EMP though. Why recycle an ability when you can just make a more interesting way to disable a device?
